Chapter 1 Amu POV
It was a breezy night. A quiet night at the local park. Ikuto and I were sitting on the swings; both of us swinging back and forth, back and forth...
Today, was my birthday, September 27th. 'So Amu, it's your birthday today.' Ikuto said.
'Uhh.. yeah. I kind of knew that already' I replied.
'And you get presents on your birthday..' he said quietly.
'Yeaaahh... I knew that too. You do notice that all of the things your telling me, I already kn -' I started to say, but I was too shocked to say anything more.
For there was a beautifully wrapped box in front of me. It was a small box, but it was covered with red wrapping paper and yellow ribbon. 'Is.. is this for me?' I whispered softly.
'Well it's not my birthday, is it?' Ikuto said, looking away while blushing a little.
I took the present and untied the ribbon, and ripped off the wrapping paper.
I opened the small box slowly and carefully. When I saw what was inside, I was speechless; with no words to say. Inside, was a beautiful necklace. A necklace with a sparkling pink rose in the middle. 'Wow..' I said with astonished eyes.
Ikuto put out his hand, as if to say 'Here, I'll put it on for you'. But knowing him, he'd be too shy or cool to say that.
I gave him the necklace and looked forward. He got off the swing, and walked slowly to me. I expected him to walk to my back side, like what a normal person would do, but instead, he just walked up to my face and leaned forward, trying to put on the necklace that way.
As he tried to put it on, I could feel his breath on the back of my neck. It was slow breathing; quite calming actually. My face was in the back of his neck. I could smell his hair; his scent.
It was a manly scent, it doesn't really smell like strawberries or cherries or anything like that. All I knew was that I loved this scent, and this man. Sure he was 4 years older than me, but in love - age doesn't matter..right?
Ikuto suddenly stopped. 'It must mean that he put on the necklace already.' I thought. While pulling back to face me, he quickly gave me a kiss on the neck.
'No.. he didn't.. did he just kiss me? On the neck too..!' I thought. A rush of red appeared on my face. That, was the first time Ikuto had ever kissed me there.
He pulled back, his face now in front of mines. Ikuto smiled. He had such a kind smile; a smile that makes you happy, even at the worst times. His eyes was shining by the light of the moon.
I'm pretty sure it was bright enough to see the blush on my face, so I looked away. 'Aw, come on Amu, no need to blush' Ikuto said in a kind voice. He took his hand and put in under my chin. Ikuto gently pulled my chin, so I can face him. Ikuto started to close his eyes and lean in.
Knowing what he would do next, I did the same. I closed my eyes and started to lean forward. We were nearly 1 centimeter away from each other... I was seconds away from a kiss, but before our lips could meet, I fell into a pit of darkness.
